Wokingham, Berkshire Hookup Spots and Stuff Only Locals Know

Hook-up Spots (That hallowed spot where everyone hangs around with their mates dreaming of the time when they can get into the pubs or clubs - a bench, a corner: you name it.)

• the best place to hang around was anywhere in winnersh, i love it !
• Any person from wokingham will tell you that the park by the old tescos was always full to the brim with youths from all areas of the town, often causing conflict. The youth club down the reading road was a guaranteed youth piss-up and orgy and Nisa park and wasteland were also great to hang around.
• Winnersh flats mush
• Not a place but a guy, Matt Green, wannabe leader of the corn boyz and also wanted to be lead singer of the levellers. One of the coolest rebel tramps in his years at forest, I saw him in applebys the other day begging for half eaten burgers, how the mighty have fallen
• The Beezers - Home of the legendary CORN BOYZ - What a joke!!!! Good place to get absoultly wasted on cheap cider and buckets
• Lowther Park- Emmbrook Them boys down there could smoke anyone in the old days. Always a bong being passed round there and its not always puff there smoking(c***k)!!!!
• woosehill was the best meeting point for groups of youths from all areas. Cantley park and heron park, chesnut avenue and Carters steam fair were always eventful for the towns youngsters, even though more oftern than not it ended in violence and mayhem.
• All the hook - up spots mantioned here are all drug fests and unless u want to end up fucked up, avoid them!
• WOOSEHILL = GOOD TIME - GOD BLESS CHESNUT AVENUE AND SAFEWAY CAR PARK
• Many a good time round woosehill getting trashed and causing trouble. Shouts to the sirius crew, woosely crew and north woosehill crew(chesnut lot)and all groups from winnersh, reading, lower early and finch - RESPECT. Cantley fireworks and carters steam fair always eventful for the youth.
• Beanoak park, st crispins grounds & ramps, the old tescos car park ermmm where ever the hell we want to! oh and the youth club opposite st pauls and the holt, amazing kebab van.
• The Crossroads- back in the days. BIG UP THE FINCH MASSIVE!!!
• leslie Sears playing fields down Eastheath Ave. That and the woods behing Luckley Oakfield school. Get pissed, run away from any passing authority figures then ride your bike home and pretend to your parents that you're sober.
• For the st crispins massive of recent, the spots had to be The Council Offices opposite Carnival pool about 2 summers ago, and King Georges Field, by st.crispins...Bean Oak like somebody mentioned...Howard park until "somebody" smashed all the lights in. But Cantly is full of those nasty Greebos who are always whining about something.
• Blagrove Park (lesley Sears playing field) before the exodus to Elizabeth's - underground venue - people travelled miles from all around wokingham to attend this secret spot. Blagrove was featured in the Wokingham Times with the headline "Teenage Vice Den" in its heyday.
• How can ne1 forget the yoof centre by the Kebab Van (nr Holt)? I spent many a evening in a catatonic state playing footie with local roodies. terrific!
• wokinghams amazin i moved away from it not long ago and maga miss it!!
• Utter shite!
• Outside mace/ 7/11 /searles/ whatever the fuck you want to call it - the ultimate grebo hang out it has several passing 16/17/18/19/20/21 year olds on their way to the pub who might buy you fags or drink - a good selection of weirdos to shout at and very close to a park. What more could a 13yr old want?
• "Johns"-?
• Cantley field is always a classic - hundreds of underage brats congregate there EVERY friday/saturday night during the summer, and drink, smoke ganja and ride their stolen 50cc mopeds around.
• Safeway car park where the pikeys hang out
• beanoak park - without a doubt you'll find a bunch of shifty teenagers smoking pot- great fun!
• safeway car park in woosehill offers a hang around place for the pikeys of cirius close based next to safeways itself. blokes range from 16-21 and hang around with girls of about 14 or 15, all of whom have babies. chestnut avenue also offers a place of youth drunkeness and violence. this place is often visited by police on a friday and saturday night.
• Don't hang their myself, but Young-Star possies have been spotted frequently opposite Carnival Pool on the grassed area
• woosehill - there is hella lot of pikes down there fuck woosehill
• dont really matter cos theyve all got a hang up bout something
• market place on a friday night outside the roebuck bound to see atleast two fights and a stripper. always nice totty who don't mind buying the young lads a drink or two.
• Heron park in woosehill, many an illegal piss up has taken part here, getting really drunk and noisy often lead to the local residents coming out or calling the police. The slide is a popular attraction to young pissed up youths especially when you have just forgotten that u took a slash down it minutes before!!
• The Kebab van outside firstbowl. Swigging cans of Kaliber is not recommended since cat-meat should never be eaten sober if you expect to keep it down.
• we're all a bunch of mashheads, come join in on the fun.The ernies r great and cheap and readily available in the high street ( ILLS ).the pubs r shite apart from the Vic Bar. FREE MATTHEW ROSE!!!!!!
• If you're under 16, then it seems to be outside Tesco's in the town centre, not the new Tesco's that they're building down the Finchampstead Road. Also, outside the British Rail Station near Big Hand Jobs (Sorry Mo's) .

The Knowhere Guide started out as a list of places to skateboard in the UK. It is a compilation of (unedited) information and views supplied by users like yourself. It is not a conventional tourist guide!

In most cases, the information in each section has been submitted by more than one contributor (the credits at the bottom of the page list some, but not all, of the contributors) and some of it dates back to the 1970s.

We make no claims as to the accuracy of the information in the Guide - our only purpose is to provide a forum for users to share their knowledge and opinions. So please keep a large bag of salt handy and be prepared to read between the lines!

If you disagree with a comment, or information is out of date, please submit an update! The contributors come from all walks of life, and their opinions are bound to be subjective, so if your view isn't represented, please speak up and contribute to the balance of the Guide. See below in the 'Have Your Say' section for how to add your voice.

If we have helped you out or made you laugh you can buy us a pint.
